Hi
I have a pair of adult Boas and I want to breed them what temperature should I cool them down to and for what length of time should they be cool before I introduce them?
Also any other advice,tips,suggestions would be Greatly Appreciated
Thanks for your Help

You want to use the word cycle, not cool. Cooling snakes means to brumate them. You definately don't want to brumate your boas unless of course your talking about Rosy boas or ruber boas. If your talking about Boa Constrictor Imperator some will say you do not need to cycle their temps. If you are talking about Boa Constrictor Constrictor some will tell you to get them down in to the low 70's or high 60's.
I would suggest getting a copy of the boa constrictor manual. It was loads of great husbandry info as well as a copy of Jeff Ronne's article on breeding boas.
Cheers,
